How many liver cancer patients show evidence of hepatitis infection?
Hepatitis infections, particularly chronic infections with hepatitis B virus (HBV) or hepatitis C virus (HCV), are significant risk factors for the development of liver cancer. Chronic hepatitis infections can lead to inflammation and damage to the liver over time, increasing the likelihood of liver cancer. The relationship between hepatitis and liver cancer is well-established: Hepatitis B Virus (HBV): Chronic infection with HBV is a major risk factor for liver cancer. Individuals with chronic HBV infection have a higher risk of developing liver cirrhosis, which can progress to liver cancer. Hepatitis B vaccination is a preventive measure to reduce the risk of HBV-related liver cancer. Hepatitis C Virus (HCV): Chronic infection with HCV is another significant risk factor for liver cancer. Similar to HBV, chronic HCV infection can lead to liver cirrhosis and increase the risk of liver cancer. Antiviral medications are available to treat chronic HCV infection and may reduce the risk of liver cancer in some cases. The prevalence of hepatitis infection in liver cancer patients can vary depending on geographic regions, as the prevalence of hepatitis infections is not uniform worldwide. In areas with high rates of hepatitis infections, a substantial proportion of liver cancer cases may be attributed to chronic hepatitis.
Is there any harmful effect of Hepatitis B?
The acute illness causes liver inflammation, vomiting, jaundice and rarely, death. Chronic hepatitis B may eventually cause cirrhosis and liver cancer.
Does hepatitis b have cure?

What's Hepatitis B?
Hepatitis B is one of the most common infectious viral diseases in the world, infecting approximately two billion people worldwide. It is a virus that infects the liver. Hepatitis B infections are either acute or chronic. Acute hepatitis B can last from a few weeks to a few months. Most people with acute infection will fully recover and not have any lasting health problems. Chronic Hepatitis B is more serious. A person with chronic hepatitis B may have the disease for life. Chronic hepatitis B can lead to more serious liver disease, including liver cancer.
What is the difference between chronic hepatitis b and carrier of hepatitis B?
Chronic hepatitis B refers to a long-term infection with the hepatitis B virus that can lead to liver inflammation and potentially serious complications such as cirrhosis or liver cancer. A carrier of hepatitis B, on the other hand, typically refers to a person who has the virus in their blood but does not exhibit symptoms or have active liver disease. Carriers can still transmit the virus to others, whereas chronic hepatitis B patients often require medical management to prevent disease progression.
Can you get any form of cancer after a full recovery of hepatitis B?
Sure, you can get cancer at any point in your life regardless of any other disease you had and recovered from.
